so recently I had a question what is the

difference between the ketogenic diet

versus a low carb diet okay I’m just

gonna cover that all right so they’re

both low carbohydrate but really the

only difference is that the ketogenic

diet recommends a moderate amount of

protein okay most low carb diets have

higher amounts of protein now the

problem with higher amounts of protein

with certain people especially if

there’s liver damaged a lot of people

have a damaged liver and don’t even know

they have a damaged liver as you start

to build up too much uric acid in the

body and ammonia and you usually see

that with foamy strong smelly urine that

could be the waste because the liver in

the kidney is not breaking down the

protein properly so excessive amounts of

ammonia can create all sorts of problems

in the brain and the kidney and this

basically is a toxic effect of amino

acids because your kidney liver is not

able to break it down you can also have

a problem in your gut where your

microbes are not able to break this down

too so we don’t want to add a lot of

stress to the organs like even the

digestive system even the stomach even

the liver or the kidney by adding a lot

of protein the body just kind of gets

overwhelmed it can then create certain

byproducts that are toxic to your body

because your your organs are not able to

deal with that much protein on the other

hand if your protein is too low you can

get really weak you can have immune

problems muscle loss hair loss collagen

loss you’re getting saggy skin or let’s

say for example your your gums are

receding so we want just the right

amount of protein you want between three

to six ounces maybe seven maybe even

eight per meal and we want that to be

high-quality if you’re adding in a

minute fasting in there things are going

to change because just the way your body

adapts to the calories and it’s going to

be more conservative with your protein

so you’re not going to require even as

much when you’re doing in a minute

fasting but the common denominator of

why a low-carb diet or ketogenic diet is

healthy is simply because your

in carbohydrates and it’s the high

carbohydrate diet that creates the most

side effects especially to your eyes to

the lens of the eye to the pressure the

fluid in the eye to the nerves in the

eye and then we get damage to the liver

with inflammation cirrhosis and

definitely a fatty liver and the damage

to the heart and the nerves and the

brain so between these two diets I’m

gonna recommend the ketogenic diet just

make sure that you’re doing the healthy

version of the ketogenic diet thanks for
